I love the quiet of early summer mornings. Several hours of
daylight yet there's noboby around to enjoy it. I guess if
there was it wouldn't be quiet
Watch the sunrise on June 21st? Been there, done that....


Cancel BST is what I say, I don't go to bed all that early,
say 10pm, I don't seem to need much sleeep but in June
it's still pretty light at that time.


Acoording to today's paper there's talk about bringing in Double
Summer Time, so that in summer we would be on GMT+2.

Talk in today's Torygraph that the Scots will put the mockers on it -
again. The proposal, apparently, has to have the agreement of the
devolved assemblies.

If devolution has truly occurred, why can't the Scots just arrange
their own daylight hours and leave the rest of the UK to sort out
theirs? It's not as if a difference in time is going to cause too many
problems across the border. Some countries cope, quite happily, with
different time zones within their own country; why not the UK?


Exactly.
